| ( | 86 | × | 221 50 | + | 5 | x | ) | ÷ | ( | 86 | + | x | ) | = | 9 2 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 86 | + | x | ) |
| ( | 86 | × | 221 50 | + | 5 | x | ) | = | 9 2 | ( | 86 | + | x | ) |
| 86 | × | 221 50 | + | 5 | x | = | 9 2 | ( | 86 | + | x | ) |
| 86 | × | 221 50 | + | 5 | x | = | 9 2 | × | 86 | + | 9 2 | x |
9503 25 | + | 5 | x | = | 387 | + | 9 2 | x |
| 5 | x | − | 9 2 | x | = | 387 | − | 9503 25 |
1 2 | x | = | 387 | − | 9503 25 |
1 2 | x | = | 172 25 |
| x | = | 172 25 | ÷ | 1 2 |
| = | 172 25 | × | 2 |
| x | = | 344 25 |
| x | = | 13.76 |
